You might like to go with the flow while you travel, but that doesn’t necessarily mean Mother Nature’s flow is the most welcome kind. When you’re on your period while you travel, it means bringing your reusable period care products and mapping out the most hygienic places to clean them. Not to mention putting it all into a carry-on bag that’s TSA-compliant.
While you can always bring a spare go-bag with an extra pair of leakproof underwear and find some great tips online to help clean period cups and discs on the go, nothing beats a travel bag. You can assemble the essentials for the bag yourself or get them all in a travel kit from a dependable period care brand. Either way, people with periods need the following items for their carry-on bag:
The Bag
You first need an appropriately-sized travel bag to hold your period care cleaning supplies. The best will be not too small or too big. It will fit in your carry-on with two travel-size bottles, a sanitizer (more on that later), and maybe even a go-bag with a pair of leakproof underwear. A breathable, high-quality, 100% cotton bag is ideal to help keep things in place.
The Wash
Period cups and discs need a mild cleanser without parabens or potentially harsh ingredients. Modern period care brands that support your sustainability efforts will offer a gentle, pH-balanced cup and disc wash to ensure you care for your cup in a way that prolongs its duration. Reliable period cups will remain in good condition if you use a period cup and disc wash, so find one that is also available in a travel-size tube and add it to your period care travel bag.
The Bottle
Carrying a reusable, travel-size bottle is a great alternative to purchasing a plastic water bottle to clean your cup or disc. You can even grab one that has a squeezy top like a peri bottle. This kind of bottle makes rinsing your cup or disc a breeze if you have to remove it in a public restroom at an airport, train station, hotel, campsite, or anywhere else. Add it to the bag!
The Sanitizer
A sanitizer is a cup to clean and sanitize a reusable period care product like a menstrual cup or disc. Sanitizers are compact, easy to transport, and come with a lid. These are great if you can access a kettle or a microwave in a hotel or wherever you’re staying. You can sanitize your medical-grade silicone menstrual cup or disc in boiling water. You will want to add a sanitizer to your period care travel bag to keep your period care products clean and sanitary as if at home.
Sometimes, you can’t avoid traveling while you’re on your period. It could be for work or pleasure, but Mother Nature may plan a visit regardless of your schedule. Don’t miss out on exciting experiences or advantageous career opportunities because you’re stressing about your period. You can own your flow, live your life, and keep things clean—all it takes is an organized carry-on bag.
